KUALA LUMPUR, June 11 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has announced its Visconti(™)4 image recognition processor was a key component in the driver assistance systems of Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) vehicles.
Toyota has recorded industry-leading scores in the 2018 Japan New Car Assessment Program (JNCAP), the Japanese Government programme that assesses the road safety of new vehicles.
Toshiba is contributing to a future of safe vehicles by channelling its know-how in deep neural networks and sensor, and imaging technologies into the Visconti(™) series of image processor LSIs for advanced driver assistance systems.
The LSI’s ability to process luminance differences between objects and their backgrounds, realises better detection of pedestrians at night and in low light conditions.
This has helped the Toyota vehicles win high scores in assessment of collision avoidance braking for pedestrians.
The Alphard/Vellfire integrating the system received a high score of 126 points and took the Grand Prix Award for preventive safety performance assessment, and all of the Toyota models integrating Visconti(™)4 were evaluated as Advanced Safety Vehicle (ASV)+++.
Toshiba is now developing Visconti(™)5, which will deliver advanced Deep Neural Network IP and expects to start sample shipments in September this year.
